FAQ

What is OTF?

OTF, or OpenType Font, is a versatile font format developed by Microsoft and Adobe that expands on traditional formats like TrueType. It supports advanced typographic features such as ligatures, alternate characters, and various other typographic options. OTF fonts can contain both TrueType and PostScript outlines, making them ideal for designers and typographers who need flexible and rich typography across different platforms. This format ensures consistent rendering of text across different environments by allowing font data to be embedded within documents.

What is WOFF2?

WOFF2, or Web Open Font Format 2, is a highly optimized font format specifically designed for web use. It compresses font files more efficiently than previous formats, reducing file size and improving website loading times. WOFF2 retains the quality of the original font while offering superior compression, making it the go-to choice for web developers and designers aiming to optimize web performance.

How does the conversion from OTF to WOFF2 occur?

The conversion from OTF to WOFF2 involves the following steps:

1. Reading the OTF file: The converter reads the font data from the OTF file, including glyph outlines, typographic features, and metrics.
2. Data compression and transformation: The converter compresses and transforms the OTF data into the WOFF2 format. While maintaining font quality, the compression process reduces the file size, though some advanced features unique to OTF may not be fully supported by WOFF2.
3. Creating the WOFF2 file: After compressing and transforming the data, a new WOFF2 file is generated, which can be used across web platforms that support WOFF2 fonts.
